FiberLight Network Diversity Offers Improved Carrier Density To 1Vault Networks In South Florida

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FiberLight® LLC, a leading source of metro optical transport solutions, is partnering with 1Vault Networks to provide optical transport capacity throughout the South Florida marketplace by connecting diversely routed fiber between 1Vault Network's Category 5 Data Center in Fort Lauderdale and global IP provider NTT America.

The agreement provides FiberLight with new partnership opportunities in Fort Lauderdale while meeting its core business strategy of supplying metro optical backbone between data centers and high bandwidth user locations in growing metro markets.

"1Vault's premier carrier class data center in Fort Lauderdale offers FiberLight a great presence in the tri-county area. This is a good solution for our customers looking for disaster recovery options in South Florida but north of the downtown Miami area," FiberLight COO Kevin Coyne notes.

1Vault Networks' Data Center in Fort Lauderdale is built to withstand natural disasters, system failures and human intervention through the construction of a fully redundant infrastructure of generator-backed utility fields, A/C chillers and raised flooring. The Florida-based company selected FiberLight to provide fiber optic connectivity as its secure network complements 1Vault's comprehensive plan of business continuity, disaster recovery and high-speed IP connectivity.
